Crush and blush, 2008









Crush and blush(미쓰 홍당무,Miss Hongdangmu or Miss Carrot)

Director Lee Kyoung-mi
2008th South Korean Film

It is the debut feature film of director Lee Kyoung-mi, and also the first film to be produced by Park Chan-wook.

Yang Mi-sook is an unpopular and frumpy high school Russian teacher, who has a habit of going red in the face. For ten years she has been harbouring a crush on Seo Jong-cheol, her former teacher and now married colleague, though he is more interested in pretty new teacher Lee Yoo-ri. Mi-sook tries to put a halt to this blossoming romance, forming an unlikely alliance with Jong-cheol's daughter, Jong-hee.

The main character, Yang Mi-suk transforms herself into an oddball social outcast devoid of any sexuality. The actress Gong Hyo-jin managed to play this character very well in balance. Her performance was not much of getting us sympathy or nauseating but let us support her anyway.

Through her revenge play and running fight, we just became her, we got into the situation. Isn't it the common feeling that everybody has had to have jealousy over distinguished people? SAD!

We see the burst of all the emotion among relationship, narcissism and even ego, the last part doesn't quite last clearly. It is a kinda of Korean style movie that gives us some moral lessons.

Though this movie is so intriguing and just adorable.
Don't have to mention of Carl Gustav Jung's theory involved with Anima and Animus, you will see :)

Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium

Hi, my name is Eric. This is the start!


 How lovely you are, Natalie Portman.




Full of imagination and endearing people!
It is indeed an wonder land!:)
You can't keep your eyes off this adorable movie.

Molly Mahoney is the awkward and insecure manager of Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium, the strangest, most fantastic, most wonderful toy store in the world. But when Mr. Magorium, the 243 year-old eccentric who owns the store, bequeaths the store to her, a dark and ominous change begins to take over the once remarkable Emporium.

But, there is lovely Molly who will take care of the rest of the day for the Emporium as Mr. Magorium's asked. At the first, she wasnt confident of herself to carry out what she need to do for the emporium. She was about to sell it to hold back the hurt she got from the fact she is not able to have Mr. Magorium any more. Eric and Henry who love their friend, Molly, want her to keep it for her and themselves....

This movie talks about Friendship and Eternity(briefly).
If we can be friends all together, there wouldn't be any war.

Friendship is a different type of LOVE.
If we can keep this type of LOVE through all the leaders then world will be changed.
It could be heard too innocent, I'd love to be innocent about Friendship.
It does last in your heart for good, right?
Smile!:)

The Science Of Sleep, 2005


The Science Of Sleep, 2005, Director. Michel Gondry

It's all about communication.
Mis-communication allows wars happen in the world and well-communication let us in peace.

Then how can we communicate well with others?

1. Respect other beings as who and what they are.

Case :
I am Asian and my friend is American.
We do think and talk differently in all the situations but never argue with each other.
Because we know we have different cultural background and knowledge from how we have been taught from each opposite sides.
When I get something strange and awkward feeling from some specific situations, I go for asking my friends to explain them to me with satisfying description.
There is no chance to be seen mis-understanding or mis-communication happening in our friendship :)

2. Care other beings what they 'really' want to talk about through their 'talk'
Case :
North Korea has been threatening people in the world, especially South Koreans and foreigners who are staying in South Korea.
They said they are actually attacking South Korea, so foreigners were told to evacuate by North Korea. CNN even made a video-clip showing us how 'the war' will go between South and North Korea with specific numbers like the duration of the war, expected outcome and etc(Speechless!).
I am not saying there is 0% of possibility of the outbreak of war but pretty much sure North Korea has many obstacles(especially lack of national finance) to be sorted out.
The point is that Why they are doing it more than what they are doing.
If, if the war happens in South Korea, still their next step would be predictable to defend ourselves.
If we do our jobs as doing proper and efficient communication with different people then Love would only last in the world.


Any more interesting and attractive ideas are most welcome! :)

MANNAM love & peace : Definition of Love??


Nothing But Ghosts, Nichts Als Gespenster, 2006


Based on stories by best-selling author Judith Hermann, "Nothing But Ghosts" is directed by Martin Gypkens, who won the Director's Advancement Prize at the Max Ophüls Festival for his debut feature "Wir" in 2003.

Five stories, five journeys: a dozen Generation X'ers traveling somewhere to find something - what they've been longing for, or perhaps what they fear... In the American Southwest, one couple comes to realize that their relationship has become as arid as the desert they're crossing.

I'd like to let you guys think about love which can be said 'Relationship' between couples.
They must have loved each other but you can't tell they look happy enough being together.


What is LOVE?
That has been being 'the' question in my nowadays.
A guy and a girl meet somehow and get interested in each other and fall in love....and?
Go get married, have adorable kids and have a lovely family..
Or get tired of each other's different needs, get to ruin their 'relationship and finish it... over.

What is LOVE?
People say 'I love you so much, you are only the one who I love and adore forever' easily..or insensitively.
Can I love someone really?
Really can I love the person?
It can be cheesy to be heard or too serious to get it, have a seat with a cup of coffee and let me know what you think about it.

Let's share lovely ideas for getting to know LOVE.
When we think of one specific warm idea, you would smile quietly.
:)
